Publisher's Synopsis
Napoleon Hill was a journalist and writer who later served as an advisor to President Franklin D. Roosevelt from 1933 to 1936. His big break came with his interview of Andrew Carnegie in 1908. Intrigued by Carnegie's assertion that the path to success could be broken down into a simple yet comprehensive formula, Hill accepted Carnegie's challenge to study and interview successful individuals to determine to what they owed their achievements. This masterwork identifies thirteen principles that every person should adopt if they are serious about achieving success.
